My Android Wear app keeps crashing intermittently with an illegal state exception telling me to add 

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not find wearable shared library classes. Please add uses-library android:name="com.google.android.wearable" android:required="false" /> to the application manifest

I have seen this thread below, but my "uses-library" statement is in the application section as you can see.

Crash loading WearableActivity

I get the same error with another of my wear apps. Here are it's dependencies.

repositories {
    jcenter()
    maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    mavenCentral()
}


dependencies {

compile project(':audiosearch');

compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.0.1'

provided 'com.google.android.wearable:wearable:2.0.5'
}

This is a standalone wear app.

  • If you are making apps with optional wear app, you can follow the answer in this [SO post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39125450/run-app-with-wear-app-without-watch/39127118) if the latter is not working fine. The same error was encountered by the user. – MαπμQμαπkγVπ.0 Oct 01 '17 at 13:07
  • No, this is a standalone Wear app. – Joel Page Oct 01 '17 at 13:15
  • Might be an issue with your dependencies. Do you mind posting the build.gradle file too? – TofferJ Oct 02 '17 at 14:40
  • I posted the dependencies for this app as well as another one that is having the same issues for comparison. – Joel Page Oct 02 '17 at 15:11
